[Gtkradiant] GtkRadiant 1.5 Quake 4 template issue

[Branan Riley]

Alright, just figured it out. It turns out it's not an issue with GtkRadiant
at all - it's an issue with the Quake4 gamepack. q4.game defines
shaders="doom3", which isn't right - it needs to be shaders="quake4" in
order to support templates.
